The Flagmantle Podcast

Unfortunately the Eagles have snapped the streak and have annoyed us at the water cooler all week - nothing is worse than a Derby loss. But what was so special about the Eagles last week? Join me as I discuss how the youth can give teams an edge in emotional performances and how the Dockers can steal the Eagles idea for the upcoming Len hall game against the Dogs on Saturday.

Oh boy how much a kick makes in footy. Many say Freo should be dissapointed they're not 5-0, but is that realistic? Losing to two Premiership favourites away from home in back to back weeks by a kick each isn't a bad result at all. Listen as Stu discusses why considering new and optimistic perspectives is important in football with cameos from James Aish, Nat Fyfe and Alex Pearce.

The spuds of North Melbourne unite! Pink, Dawson and Corr get absolutely flamed by Stu and Ucatt for a solid 15 minutes in the lead up to the Roos-Dockers game. Ucatt talks about how he started his YouTube journey and the key to success on the platform. They then start to get a little bit silly, inventing 'JL Ball', roasting North Melbourne's list and giving Freo's win over Brisbane the flowers it deserves! All this and much more on the Flagmantle Podcast.

AND WE BACK! Stu returns with Flagmantle founder and inside man Chris Ch'ng. They discuss how Chris took his love for uncovering and reporting on WA prospects, his rise to Instagram fame and their thoughts on Freo's pre season. How will Freo stack up against the Lions and what do the midfield need to do to prevent the dominance of Oscar McInerney! All this and much more on the RETURN of the Flagmantle podcast!

The top WA draft prospect guru and Flagmantle OG Chris Ch'ng joins Rielke & Stu for this draft special podcast. We review how Chris' page went from a time passing hobby to something he has really been able to dominate at. We also do a mock draft for Monday and Tuesday's prospects and review all the WA talent that Freo and West Coast should be looking at.

Schultz, Hamling, Henry, my sanity. Just 4 things we've lost this trade period. Rielke & Stu dive into the absolute mess that was Freo's 2023 Trade Period. No players in, limited draft hand and a lot of time wasted on Trade Radio creates the perfect recipe for a shocking two weeks. We analyse the list and its changes, and even take a deeper look into the Jack Ginnivan/Dan McStay beef.

Liam Henry selected the Saints as his preferred destination, and whilst this may seem like a disaster, Stu explains how choosing St Kilda actually benefits Freo in the trade market. Rielke discusses other potential trade targets such as Jeremy Sharp, Mabior Chol, Trey Ruscoe and more in our first trade episode of the year!

We've taken our week off and set something fantastic up. Swan District's very own, future AFL player, and half back game breaker Riley Hardeman joins Rielke and Stu in the studio. We dissect his on AND off field approaches that make him such an impressive individual. He speaks well, he plays better, and is a soon-to-be stand up comic, everyone get tf around this episode - another banger!

Tom Emmett made a fantastic debut in Freo's 16 point loss to top-4 Port Adelaide on the weekend. Stu's Spanish cousin gets stopped by security in their first game of footy, whilst Rielke reviews the Adelaide Crow's last minute goal controversy! The boys also gear up for the summer season of domestic basketball!

As the Dockers gear up for Round 23 against Port Adelaide, the fans gear up with their new retro kit! Rielke discusses who Hayden Young's next opponent is, whilst Stu provides some draft coverage. How can Peter Bell make the most of the Liam Henry situation, and why does it always involve the Gold Coast Suns?

Benry and Kawree from the Barely Touched Him Podcast join the Flagmantle boys for this absolutely crackin episode!! From grabbing nuts to handsome players to Donald Trump coaching Carlton, this episode has everything you never knew you needed to hear. Join us for lots of laughs and some interesting questions, particularly featuring Stu's mum.

After dealing with loads of criticism over the past few weeks, Alex Pearce seems to be back to his best after blanketing Jeremy Cameron and Tom Hawkins. The Dockers snuck up on everyone with a surprise win over the charging Cats, fuelled by the speed of our small forwards.

On this episode of the Flagmantle Podcast, Stu lists 10 reasons for us diehards to stay excited for the rest of 2023. It may be hard, but there is always something to look forward to. Rielke makes a bold call surrounding out of form Eagle Andrew Gaff, and how has Alex Pearce played this whole year without training?

Chris Spencer has stepped up in Stu's absence and has produced a lively and fun podcast. The combination of young and used to be young makes this pod worth a listen. Hear Chris discuss his favourite ex Dockers, the state of the team in 2023, our chances against the Pies and answer all your questions!

Rielke has brainwashed all of you... but what has he made you believe? This is a killer episode of the Flagmantle Podcast, talking about Liam Henry's sudden improvement, the great names that were banned from Lords, and what do the boys think of Karl Worner's shot at a debut this week? All this and much more on this jam packed episode!

The Dockers downed the Bombers at Optus, and Liam Henry is on a mission to prove the haters wrong! Rielke & Stu are back from being MIA, and have a whole lot to discuss, namely the Eagles having the worst game either of the boys have ever seen!

After the disappointing loss to the Tigers, Rielke and Stu hit the town to drown their sorrows with booze. The boys discuss what happened that caused the result, the upcoming fixture with GWS and what the AFL should be doing to solve all this sling tackle madness!

Perhaps the weirdest episode of the podcast to date - Rielke & Stu preview Freo's upcoming match against the Tigers. We still aren't sure if this was a great or crap podcast, but we got a lot of laughs out of each other. McKay to kick 20 behinds, the King to have passed before the King's Birthday Match, and an insight into Damian Hardwick's trip overseas.

On this episode of the Flagmantle Podcast, Rielke & Stu catch up for the first time in a couple weeks! They discuss the recent signings, new addition to the list and a new face in the front office. The boys also go through and rate the entire list's performance to date, by giving each player a report card!

After ending the Demon's winning streak in the same round last year, Walyalup do it again, but in a significantly different fashion, proving that history doesn't repeat itself, but it often rhymes. Luke Jackson showed his ex teammates that he is the real deal in Sean Darcy's absence. Will Jaeger O'Meara get his suspension overturned, and are Freo a genuine chance in 2023? All this and much more on this solo episode of the Flagmantle Podcast!
